if god created everything - who created god?

[badnews]

Just wondered what all your thoughts are?

[Theland1]

simplistic answers, and ducking the ulimate question, "What / Who was the first cause in our universe of cause and effect?"

[naomi24]

There's only one logical answer to that, Theland. We don't know. And that isn't ducking the question - it's a fact.

[chakka35]

Quite right, naomi, but Theland does not deal in logic, as we know.

He should surely answer his own question. He believes that the universe had a creator so, by his own rules (as I have pointed out a tedious number of times), his creator must have had a creator. And that creator must have had a creator...

So answer your question, Theland. How far back in that succession of creators do you go? Where do you stop -- and why?

[jake-the-peg]

It's more complicated than that.

You're assuming that time worked the way at the "begining" as it does now.

Infact time goes slower or faster depending on maytings. At the speed of light it stops.

As you go back to the begining - it stops.

It's not a question of knowing or not knowing. The question actually doesn't have a meaning.

Any more than it has a meaning to ask what "you" were doing before you were born

This is theory, Jake, so I think it's true to say we don't know.
